Not in the Script

Not in the Script is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers college romance with the perfect mix of banter, tension, and bookish obsession.

At NYU, Zen is a campus legend. Star athlete. Hockey captain. Untouchable.
To Kennedy, he's her worst nightmare wrapped in a six-foot-something ego and a jersey.

They've known each other for twelve long, awkward, chaos-filled years.
He's her best friend's older brother.
She's the pink-haired bookworm he's been tormenting—and secretly protecting—since high school.

All Kennedy wants is a quiet life: acing her Graphic Design degree, running her Book Club, and staying far away from the walking, talking plot twist that is Zen. But he has other plans—plans that don't exactly fit into the story she's writing for herself.

She believes perfect men only exist in books.
He's determined to prove her wrong.
Even if it means rewriting every chapter of her carefully planned life.

Because for Zen, she was never just the girl next door. She's the main character.
And he's ready to break every rule—especially the ones that say he shouldn't want her.
